history, have seen many events, have witnessed many events. we have eight years of the holy defense in which saddam hussein backed by many western powers was against our nation, and then witnessed many other events. about ten years ago, perhaps, iran was under direct threat. those who have occupied iraq and afghanistan were threatening iran on a daily basis. i do not believe that we are under any special conditions now from those sources, but the fact that the world -- historic period in the world is coming to an end, an era during which power has set the first and last word. those holding the keys to power have set the fate of many populations. that era is coming to an end. >> the big catalyst for protests at the moment in the middle east was the video that was released which mocked the prophet muhammed. as a result, there was an attack as you know on the american embassy in benghazi in libya. the ambassador christopher stevens was murdered. do you condemn the attack which caused his murder? >> translator: fundamentally, first of all, any action that is provocative offends the reli

president on the defense during the debates, then the polls will surely change. that's not an easy thing to do because the debate formats allow the candidates to say pretty much whatever they want to sacht the moderator next week jim lair is not going to control obama or romney. he will ask a question and keep quiet. that's not a knock on will he leher. any interruptions are deemed inappropriate. the out of touch with the folks. the president has spent hundreds of millions of dollars on ads stating that. the governor does come across as a classic rich guy. it's tough to picture him super sizing his meal at mcdonald's. the kennedy's were like that as well. but in this class warfare age, that perception is certainly holding romney back. the president's record is dubious to say the least. but many americans aren't paying attention and will vote on emotion. thus the rich guy and regular phi scenario. governor romney has only one chance. he must convince voters during the debates that if the president is is real e -- reelected. things are going to get much worse in america. can he do that? on

"i'm so sorry." some movie trailer came out, it's wrong, it's disgusting. he did it, hillary did it, susanries did it, jay carney did it. why are they pandering this way? right here in america we have a group in dearborn that's trying to stop freedom of speech. where's the president on this in. >> because the left, contrary to popular opinion, is not the defender of free speech. you know, anytime you hear a person use the term "hate speech" you are listening to an attack on the first amendment, because you're hearing an argument that says there are things that says there are things so far out of the mainstream that they ought to be banned. slate, the online liberal magazine this week ran a piece that said we run t

-taliban, is that in itself the best defense of the taliban coming back into power, folks who would stand firm? >> maybe not. the taliban is an armed group. these schoolgirls are not going to fight against the taliban. they are all very worried about what is going to happen in this country. and we've spoken to politicians, political analysts, and they think after these troops leave that there could be a civil war in this country, and many afghans now don't remember 9/11. they just remember ten years of war. and they're asking themselves why? why did this happen? why did we have to have all of this war for ten years? >> 300,000 afghan troops, local police, national police have been trained. the strategy to get these folks home is to turn it over to afghan troops. questions about readiness and supplies and that sort of thing. but are they fighting an enemy who has an organization -- are the taliban fragmented? are they the fighting force that they used to be? >> there are many groups. we all call them the taliban. there's different groups that fall under the umbrella of the taliban. right now the afghan secur

over a sluggish economy, when casper wineberger, former president ronald reagan's defense secretary, was implicated in the iran contra scand shortly before election day. bad news that bush, who served as reagan's vice president, did not need. in 2004, a classic october surprise. osama bin laden released a video on october 29th, just four days before election day in a razor-thin race between president bush and john kerry. three years after 9/11, it served as a reminder of the terrorist threat and strategists in both parties believed helped president bush. more recently the term october surprise has come to mean a seismic event in the fall of an election year. though most have centered around foreign policy, others have been about the economy, like in 2008. when the economy imploded, john mccain's advisors say his campaign collapsed along with it and never recovered. historians say in order for an october surprise to have a real 11th hour impact, it has to feed into a narrative that already exists, whether it's carter's ineffectiveness or questions about mccain's credentials on the ec

is sticking its nose into all things. it's gotten us into huge trouble. >> so to be clear and defense attorney joey jackson is back with me from atlanta. professor jackson representative akin was suggesting that the government should not be telling people what to do in their businesses and i think a lot of people really understand and feel that way. but there are something you can and cannot do according to the law. would you enlighten me, please as to whether you can choose somebody who is black make less or choose somebody who is female make more or less? what's the story? >> insert foot in mouth. you know there are laws in the country and what do they say? specifically the law he was talking about and it was a big political issue might remember the campaign and in fact at that time, you know, john mccain was even against it, and the republican party was against it but the law he's talking about relates to equal pay and there's a gender gap with between what females and males make. lowers are doing this inappropriately and there's a law that says you can't. in 1963 was the first equal pay ac

and after 24 years in the corps when i retire, i know our defense is well taken care of. good job, sweetheart. excuse me, soldier. >> what do you say, victoria? >> i just want to say that i am so proud of my dad and i'm so proud of myself and that i made it and i'm here to serve and i'm just so proud. >> well, we're all proud of you. i'm going to get choked up here, too. thanks so much for your service and yours as well and you let her join the army. marine. >> hey, what's wrong with the army? all right. all right. >> victoria, congratulations and lieutenant colonel, thanks so much. thanks to all of you for being here and for what you do. we're all proud of you. a quick program note before we say good-bye. nbc news special coverage called "at the brink" continues tonight on "nbc nightly news," some of the most dangerous conflicts around the world and what's at stake for americans here at home. >> all right, lester, please, get home safely. great work over there. we'll see you when you do. have a great day, everyone. bye-bye. >>> new this morning, an unfortunate milestone in the wa

has made israel the prime focus -- >> brian: did he give him the missile defense system? >> yeah, he gave him that. look. the president of the united states can't come out and declare israel a public enemy. he can't do that. particularly in the democratic party which has a lot of jews voting for it. so they give their military help, but they isolated them and put all the pressuren israel instead of putting it on egypt, on iran, on hamas, on the plo. he's given 2 1/2 billion dollars to the muslim brotherhood in egypt. he's given half a billion dollars to the terrorists and the palestinian terrorists who called for the extermination of the jews. >> brian: david horowitz, it's safe to say you're not pleased with the speech you heard yesterday from the president? >> that's true. remember, when he came -- right before he was elected, he said we're five days away from fundamentally transforming the united states of america. he is a radical. my book is about the radical mind. i spent my whole life -- i was a radical and studying them. >> brian: you researched it and it's all in the book. th

a different story but to be flat cut off by the secretary of state and secretary of defense. i wanted to hear from the president. the president has been silent. statements said he was attacked. the ladies of view, he used to give a speech laying out case because so far his administration has dropped the ball on this. >> brian: i don't think it's going to go anywhere. we have to find out why security wasn't bolstered up. president had a strict briefing that something could be happening on september 11th. >> that true but the issue is what susan rice said. if barack obama is re-elected it's rumored, it is rumored that clinton will be next secretary of state -- susan rice may be the next secretary of state and he is either a fool and tool of the white house and she has to answer for herself. >> you have to look at her words. what she says her current assessment. same language that was used at 9/11. it is not smart for any administration that doesn't have information to go on national television and started talking about things they don't know. what we know right now. benghazi government has reco

on the defensive a few times, he'll gain. >> last thing on this, what do you think of the expectations game going on where each candidate is trying to outdo each other by complimenting each other's debating prowess? is this absurd or does it matter? >> like a football game, those people, play it down, tamp it down. it's all a game. you know that. >> let's talk about the book, "killing kennedy," a natural follow to "killing lincoln," and how did you feel about president kennedy and did that change over the course of the book? >> i was at chaminade high school over in long island and people don't know who john kennedy was. that's number one. after reading "killing kennedy," you'll know who the man is, both good and bad. we don't hold anything back. you'll know everything about him. and number two, they don't really know how he was killed, and we got access to the fbi agent who was assigned to lorna oswald. we know everything he did from the time he met marina in russia until the time he pulled the trigger. this is all new information. i think people will be stunned when they read it. it snaps your
